Due to the two spam attacks, SM now uses admin preview for accepting registrations. 99% of the time your account will be validated if it looks legit. Accounts that look fishy, such as a username like "urban hot list" will not be validated. I tried email validations a while back, but those do not work since spammers can just create a free email via Yahoo or similar site.

SM is still getting spammed? That's rather sad. Seems more personal, somehow, if spammers are going to the length of creating and registering fake email accounts.
